Enabling an IP whitelist for account logins

Last updated June 05, 2017

Fastly allows you to define the range of IP addresses authorized to access your Fastly account. This optional IP whitelisting functionality is not enabled by default.

WARNING:If you decide to use optional IP whitelisting, your account owner must have a valid telephone number on file. During setup, Fastly checks your current IP address against the list you provide to ensure you don't lock yourself out of your account. If your IP addresses change at a later date (for example, because you move offices) and you forget to update your whitelist configuration, you will be locked out of your account. You will need to contact support@fastly.com to request that a Customer Support representative contact your account's owner via telephone during Fastly's regular business hours. To protect your account's security, we will not unlock your account based on an email request alone.

In the IP whitelist field of the Company settings area, replace 0.0.0.0/0 (the default IP range indicating no whitelisting) with the IP addresses to which your account access should be restricted.

In the IP whitelist field you can include single or multiple IP addresses or IP ranges (separated by commas) as follows:
